The Games are over! All of it! Over! I was sitting at home last night watching the Closing Ceremonies on tv until I decided that it was lame that I was sitting at home when this huge event was happening a short distance from me! So, I tried to pick the right moment so to not miss anything and headed into the village. It was cloudy and rainy (one of the main reasons for my decision to stay home)...but as I drove in (YES...DROVE! Jenny brought my car up last weekend and this freedom is AMAZING!) the sky was lit up with what seemed like fireworks on a cloudy day until I turned the corner and saw the last explosion! My mouth dropped open! It was spectacular! Obviously, that means I missed the celebration but I parked and joined the crowds of happy people walking through the village. It was a good sense of closure.
I'm just coming off two days of skiing (!) and the snow on the mountain keeps on coming! It's awesome...PLUS my skiing endurance is much better so I don't have to stop as often on my runs down the hill! Yay! Now, with work tomorrow, it might come as a shock to my system for me to actually work (there hasn't been much to do but find hiding places the last 2 weeks)...but now it's all about 'load out'. Making sure that everything onsite gets taken away! Lots of boxes are in my future -- boxes that have been moved countless times are requesting one more shove. Yipee!
9 days to go -- and then it's home...then to KANSAS to visit Mark and Kendra (!!!!)...then on to Vancouver Island...and then, the Lord only knows! Seriously.
